Predictor Variables

Market-oriented experiences tend to fluctuate by week or month. Thus, rather than use the standard interviews based on the previous day's or week's experiences, I estimated the market-oriented variables in Cosincho using a combination of interviews and direct observations of household clusters from a concurrent study (the Tsimane' Health and Life History Project). Interviews during hunting and fishing returns, town visits, and market purchases were done two to three times per week for all households in Cosincho over a ten-month span. From these data, I estimated the number of town visits, wage labor activities, and incomes. I examined food production and consumption during three-hour blocks of time spent observing household clusters. From these data, I estimated market contributions to the diet. To estimate household wealth and domestic animal-based wealth, I conducted wealth surveys in each household, defining wealth as income-generating capital. I estimated land-based wealth from a combination of interviews about household agricultural production and GPS mapping of sample agricultural fields for different cultigens.
